STARTTLS is meant for "over-the-wire" security. It's unnecessary when doing a memory-to-memory copy from one process to another within the same physical box. Do you don a fire suit just to take a pizza out of the oven? No. Simply use the RC default method and it works: // use this host for sending mails. // to use SSL connection, set ssl://smtp.host.com // if left blank, the PHP mail() function is used // Use %h variable as replacement for user's IMAP hostname $rcmail_config['smtp_server'] = ''; // SMTP port (default is 25; 465 for SSL) $rcmail_config['smtp_port'] = 25; I've been using this setting for years. It works unless you're requiring STARTTLS on TCP 25. If that's the case you probably have bigger problems... -- Stan
